Test ID: F822B    
Hemophilia A F8 Gene, Intron 22 Inversion Known Mutation, Whole Blood

Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful

First-tier molecular testing for males affected with severe hemophilia A, when a familial intron 22 inversion has been previously identified.

 

Determining hemophilia A carrier status for at-risk females, ie, individuals with a family history of severe hemophilia A due to F8 intron 22 inversion

Genetics Test Information Provides information that may help with selection of the correct genetic test or proper submission of the test request

Detects the intron 22 inversion within the F8 gene. The intron 22 inversion mutation accounts for approximately 45% of mutations associated with severe hemophilia A.

                                                

Intron 22 inversion known mutation analysis can only be performed for individuals when an intron 22 inversion has already been identified in the family. If a mutation has not already been identified in the family, order F8INV / Hemophilia A F8 Gene, Intron 1 and 22 Inversion Mutation Analysis, Whole Blood.

Reflex Tests Lists tests that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial tests.

Testing Algorithm Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.

Maternal cell contamination testing will be performed for all cord blood specimens. A maternal whole blood sample is required to perform this test.
